ART OF REAL ESTATE SELLING 

Why Some Properties are Stuck in the market for quite some time even though when the price is right?

As a professional in the real estate field for more than 10 years, allow me to share with you what are the common problems encountered see. This will show you why listings are left UNSOLD in the market for prolong periods even though pricing is right. stuck in the market for so long, even when the price is right.

Why?

 

1. Wait & See Approach Marketing  – Property portals are still the key mainstream marketing tool that property agents rely on. Through these portals, they engage in traditional and passive marketing methods by posting photos and waiting for buyers to reach out and enquire.

No doubt property portals are is still an effective marketing tool as it is still considered the mainstream way for property home buyers to advertise a property. At the same time, it also provides ample information on the property market – my team is still using it as well.

However, depending on property portals alone will not provide a good position for the listing we are putting out. With many other listings that are also for sale, it’s hard for a listing to stand out. Many still uses Traditional Wait & See Approach Marketing. How are we going to stand out among the sea of listings and get the best highest price?

2. Agents typically run a one-man show – They handle prospect coordination, marketing, viewings, negotiations, and closing paperwork alone. Such a busy and tight schedule inevitably leads to neglecting potential buyers who request to view the unit. This results in missed opportunities to attract potential buyers. Additionally, a solo agent might not have the financial resources to design the right marketing campaign for your property, potentially causing stagnation in the selling process.

3. Engaging a flat fee company or low commission fee agency – Many home sellers are attracted to flat fee commissions, and hope that these agencies can do the same job of getting the best possible result for their property.

 

After all, we are looking at a 1% vs. a 2% agent fee. It seems like the 1% will be a more cost effective solution, as it allows the home seller to save up more.

However, contrary to their beliefs, this is usually not the case.

Here is a simple illustration.

I have here a property that is valued at 480k.

  • The Flat fee agent A who charges 1% sells the property at 480k

  • Total net gain: 480k less 4.8k = 475.2k

The Professional agent B who charges 2% sells the property at 520k by using an effective and comprehensive marketing strategy. The 2% fee went into marketing costs and manpower resources, such as a videography team, IT specialist and contenting marketing team.

  • Total net gain: 520k less 10.4k = 509.6k

Total net difference 509.6 – 475.2 = 34.4k (More Cash Proceed)

So you can see that ultimately, it’s not about how much fees you are paying. The crucial key factor here is the ultimate selling price.

4. After Selling? What's The Plan NEXT??? Lack of Proper Planning For Perspective Clients. 

Sellers must understand that selling the property is one key aspect, but there are other considerations as well. Home sellers may have other plans in mind than purely selling the current home. To achieve the best result, professional advice is needed to provide a detailed financial plan and time line planning. This is crucial for home selling and for the planning of their next home purchase. For example:

 

  • Am I eligible to upgrade to a bigger flat?

  • Should I opt for a private property instead?

  • Am I able to afford my dream home?

  • Should I sell now and buy, or wait?
